Ride or Play the Blues

When I was just a kid, just around the age of 10
My Dad he bought me a guitar, he said get those strings to bend
He said learn yourself to play, learn this here guitar
Learn yourself to sing, and make yourself a star
That was back before the choices, back before I had to choose
Back before he told me Son, you gonna Ride or Play the Blues

Then around 15 I got myself some wheels
I got my first taste of, how good freedom feels
Yeah, the wind in my hair, the bugs in my teeth
I couldn’t stop smilin’, I had to have more speed
Then my Daddy popped the question, he said son you gonna lose
He said it’s time for you to choose, you gonna Ride or Play the Blues

Lead

My Daddy told me once, My Momma told me twice
My Sis she told me three times, they all had their advice
Been that way for so long, I can’t remember when
I had to make the choice to play or ride the wind
Yeah, I had to make the choice; you know I had to choose
Yeah, they all told me, you gonna Ride or Play the Blues

Now that I’m grown, I made my choices on the way
I made my choices if I’m gonna ride or if I’m gonna play
Well, as you can see, I’m up here in front of you
But what you don’t see is outside, it’s big and shiny too
Yeah, I made my choice; you know I couldn’t lose
Yeah, I chose them both, I chose to Ride and Play the Blues
